Love & Gelato

I haven't read or know anything about the novel. It may be a lot different and better as everyone says.
But I enjoyed the whole film and loved it.

It wasn’t that bad to me… but then again, I never read the book to do a comparison.

Predictable in every way possible.

read the novel instead is about grief and know your past to get to know yourself. Not a love triangle in Italy

The Italian locations are certainly nice... the rest is just...blah!

The idea was nice but the execution was bad. So bad that I want to poor bleach in my eyes and never watch this again.

I didn't read the book , or may be lovely, but boy was this movie Bland.
The main Pull of the story seems to Be being in Italy discovering the country and yourself goes to waste, as most of the scenes pretaining the country are a couple stock images of Rome and Florence, oddly vacant of people.
The actors (as beautiful as they all are lol) have no chemistry and whatever love interest or character development that happen feels very flat.

Unrealistic in every way. Italy is a beautiful country, but they showed empty cities and monuments where it's actually very full of people. They traveled between places in unrealistic times and routes from one place to the next. Acting was sub par. Could have been better. I haven't read the book to compare.

Exactly how the writers and cast managed to turn this super sweet book into a sh*t movie is completely beyond me.

came for the book adaptation, stayed for the gorgeous B-roll of Italy
